I've never worked for a company that cared about their employees as much as they do their customers. All management works well with the employees that are going through life changing events and I love the customers I get to work with on a daily bases.

Cons

Downside would be the lack of communication between employees concerning every day situations

Great support from peers and mgmt.
Career development - career maps, internal talent profiles, and development training programs.
Not only do we have external customer service we have great internal customer service with "1UR"
Employee Resource Groups - Women United, Veteran United, Together United. These are are great relationship building internal and giving back to a variety of communities/groups
Good... benefits with lots of great savings i.e. Wellness Event $600 savings and more.

Cons

None at this time. The positives out way any cons. If I have and any cons they were small and no longer a con.

Benefits are comparable to the industry, Bonuses offered, Networking opportunities, lots of charitable work to assist with for the community. Company pays for training and travel. Networking throughout the branches for equipment and needs. Company has several growth opportunities for individual aspiration.

Cons

Numerous meetings that bottleneck progress at the customer service level. Innumerable metrics to meet. Augmented micromanagement through emails and phone calls. High stress becomes an everyday factor. As with any job, if one is looking to be promoted it's all in connections not necessary personal ability to do a job to be able to excel above entry level. Must also be willing to transfer to have opportunity above... entry level.

Benefits are great. Hours of operation are respectable. Safety education is mandatory and practiced everyday. UR is an elite club and they don't just hire anyone, so you're surrounded by great employees throughout. Quality, family, and safety are preached and practiced here and that was one of the deciding factors of joining the team.

Cons

Learning curve coming from another industry was a little intimidating, but everyone was there to help and still is. Learning everyday.

Advice to Management

Bosses are doing great. They are always busy, but still manage to notice your good work and make sure you're taken care of.
